In this video, Dr. Praveen Kammar (Surgical Cancer Oncologist, Mumbai) Explained How often should the stoma bag be changed.

0:40 How often should the stoma bag be changed?
There is no fixed time or day to change the stoma bag, but companies that manufacture stoma appliances recommend a stoma bag change at least once every 7 days.

1:11 Should the single-piece stoma bag also be changed every 7 days?
A one-piece stoma bag may need to be changed on the second or third day itself; if you manage well, it may last for a few more days, but keeping a limit of 7 days is good practice.

1:33 When should a two-piece stoma bag be changed?
The flange of the two-piece bag is durable and may last longer than a one-piece stoma bag.

1:53 Why do doctors recommend changing the stoma bag every few days?
Due to the factors listed below, doctors recommend changing the stoma bag after a few days.
1. Stoma leakage is unpredictable.
2. There is a possibility of skin getting damaged near the stoma bag; if the skin starts getting damaged, it will be difficult to manage.

2:30 Does physical activity also affect the stoma bag?
You should be careful if you're doing some physical activity, and if you notice a leak in the stoma bag, you should replace it immediately.

2:58 When is the risk of leakage in the stoma bag high?
1. When you are obese
2. Sudden weight changes

3:53 Does the output of the stoma also determine when the stoma bag should be replaced?
Yes, stoma output also determines when we should change the stoma bag.
If your stoma output is liquid, then the chances of leakage and the need for a bag change are higher.
If your stoma output is solid or semi-solid, you can extend the time between stoma bag changes.
